Ok so, following my very first topic, I need to change my IWP on my GT4. I found on another website, the OEM part for sale for 750$...which I think is ridiculous.
I've done some researches, and found about the Bosch Cobra IWP, and I heard some 6th gen owners have it installed on their car, but I'm wondering if it's any good for a GT4 version, and if it requires complicated fitting to get it installed. here's a link to the water pump in question: http://www.siliconeintakes.com/product_inf...roducts_id=1001 Any advices? |

What is wrong with the old pump? If its noisey then its most likely to be the bearings worn (a common fault) which is easily and inexpensively repaired.

Hi,
you can also go for a jabsco cyclone marine pump (80L/min 1,5bar), it fits plug&play in the oem mounting bracket you just have to build a 54-killer, to buy a 30amp relay with some wiring, and buy/weld the correct hose connectors   Electric wiring of the intercooler water pump   greetz -------------------- KEEP COOL UNDER PRESSURE
